In an ideal world, we could document the RAM requirements of an image
(like headless or ubuntu-netbook) and the size of RAM of the targeted
board in a hwpack, and use these information to decide the size of the
swap.  Adding swap might not sound complex, but it can either be a swap
file or a separate partition, we will have to align the partition
properly, mkswap it, lookup its UUID etc., things close to what we do.

In the mean time, I recommend that we document expected RAM requirements
for each image, and request people to decide whether they need to pass
--swap-size.

I've added the ram_size informational field to the hardware packs v2
spec.
